As the second month of my training comes to a close, I am growing more and more motivated. I have had my first and I'm sure not my last small injury. I have a small pain in my left hip area. Doesn't slow me down or hurt really bad or anything. it just does not want to go away. Been to the doctor, to no avail. Might have to end up going to an orthopedic doc before its all over. I have one more hard week of training then a rest week if my calculations are correct. Hopefully I will have enough down time to let it heal it's self before my first race of the year. 
THAT'S RIGHT MY FIRST RACE OF THE YEAR IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!!!  If you can't tell I'm really excited about it. This years first race will be the Miami International Triathlon. It's an Olympic Distance race consisting of a 1.5 kilometer swim (.9 miles), a 40 kilometer bike (almost 25 miles) and a 10 kilometer run (6.2 miles). It all goes down on March 14th. Tommy Allore, one of the more special friends I have picked up of the many through the wonderful world of triathlon will be joining me in the race. He and his fiancĂ©e Amber will be joining Knikie and I down south. So happy that we will have another couple to bounce around with and have some fun.The race takes place out near Key Biscayne, it is truly a fun venue!!  There will be several pros there from all over the world, it's always fun to skip over and see their bikes that cost more than some peoples cars! I will get some pictures don't worry!!


Cody was up and attem' early this morning, as he is every morning. Wanted to watch Majic School Bus, so he asked repeatedly until I could get the DVR to play it. The boy has no patience for anything. He is doing really well lately, not having potty "accidents", but his behavior could be a little better. Doesn't help that he is down to one hearing aid. Had to send his right ear in for repair. Hopefully we get that back soon cause right now you have to talk to him on his left side or he just flat out doesn't know you even said anything.
That's it for this edition. Hopefully next one will be a little more entertaining!
